Herby Green Plantain Patties

Name: Herby Green Plantain Patties
Ingredients: 2 medium green plantains; 1 large red potato; 1 teaspoon garam masala; 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder, plus more to taste; 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin; 2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the pan (or you can use vegetable oil for the cooking); 1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste; 1 teaspoon finely minced ginger; 1/2 cup diced red onions; 1/2 cup chopped herbs (I like a mix of cilantro, parsley, and mint); 1 jalapeño or serrano, thinly sliced (if you’d like to reduce the heat, remove ribs and seeds)
